The commonplace view of Cuba's prerevolutionary business establishment as a corrupt kleptocracy is revised in this intriguing history of the Bacardi rum company and its involvement in Cuban politics. NPR correspondent Gjelten (Sarajevo Daily) paints the 146-year-old distiller, once an icon of Cuban industry, as a model corporate citizen—efficient, innovative, socially responsible and union-tolerant. Its leaders were pillars of nationalist politics, he contends: company president Emilio Bacardi was a leader of Cuba's rebellion against Spain, and in the 1950s CEO José Bosch helped fund Castro's insurrection. (After Castro nationalized Bacardi's Cuban holdings, Bosch started funding anti-Castro exiles.) Bacardi's image as Cuban-nationalism-in-a-bottle becomes farcical when the company, now a multinational behemoth, fights an absurd court battle with Cuba's state rum company over the Havana Club trademark. But Gjelten's account of a liberal, progressive Cuban business clan complicates and enriches the conventional picture of a society torn between right and left dictatorships. (Sept.)

Facundo Bacardi, who founded the eponymous rum company in 1862, came to Cuba from Spain as a teen-ager. By the turn of the century, as Gjelten lucidly recounts, the distilling operation that Facundo had begun in a shed was among the brands most closely identified with Cuba, and the Bacardis became inextricably entangled with the nations history. Facundo?s eldest son, Emilio, fought to overthrow the Spanish, thus inaugurating the firms long tradition of promoting revolutionary and progressive politics. But the Bacardis, despite their enthusiastic support for Castros revolution, were forced into exile in Miami in the nineteen-sixties; benevolent capitalists had no place in the new Cuban paradigm. Today, the family owns a multibillion-dollar global corporation that contributes heavily to the Republican Party.

93-95 points Allen Meadows' Burghound: "Extremely discreet notes of wood set off the ripest nose among these grands crus in 2008 with orchard fruit and pure citrus aromas leading to impressively precise big-bodied and powerful flavors brimming with dry extract and more minerality than usual on the refined, intense and hugely long finish. A wine of class and grace but with no lack of muscle." (10/09) 93-95 points Stephen Tanzer: "(domain wine) Pale, green-tinged yellow. Pungent, enticing aromas of pink grapefruit, lime and minerals. Suave and brisk on entry, then wonderfully intense and vibrant in the middle, with impressive volume and an impression of sucrosite leavened by penetrating grapefruity acidity. A wonderfully energetic wine that finishes with an almost painful whiplash of flavor and outstanding length. The acidity here is in the 4.6 range, with a very low pH around 3.0."

Visualizing calcium dynamics in the kidney
In this issue of the Journal of Clinical Investigation, Janos Peti-Peterdi and colleagues at the University of Southern California used multiphoton microscopy (MPM) to directly visualize podocyte calcium dynamics within the intact kidneys of live mice. A robust calcium wave was generated in response to glomerular injury and this signal spread throughout cells. Mice lacking the P2Y2 purinergic receptor or treated with inhibitors of calcium signaling prevented propagation of a calcium wave. Furthermore, increased calcium signaling correlated with loss of glomerular filter integrity. Together this results suggest that calcium signaling mediates pathogenic responses to injury in the kidney.

Characterization of an asplenic patient with disorder of sexual development
Mutations with in the gene encoding the transcription factor steroidogenic factor 1 (SF-1) are associated with disorders of sexual development (DSD), including sex reversal, spermatogenic failure, ovarian insufficiency, and adrenocortical deficiency. In this issue of the Journal of Clinical Investigation, David Zangen and colleagues at Hadassah Hebrew University Medical Centre identified a recessive mutation within SF1 that resulted in both severe 46,XY-DSD and asplenia in a pediatric patient. Interestingly, this particular SFI mutation decreased transactivation of TLX1, a transcription factor essential for murine spleen development. Additionally, the <

Wiccy Magic Muscles: Ka-Pow
Spicy bar for sore muscles
Wiccy Magic Muscles is our spicy massage bar for aching muscles. The first time you use one of these, it feels very strange; the sensation of peppermint and cinnamon spice oils on the skin is warm and tingly. The red pieces on the top are aduki beans, which work into the muscles like firm fingertips for a relaxing massage. When you've worked yourself into a pretzel in yoga class, or had a long day on the slopes, head home and convince someone to rub this one in. Ahh, that's better.
VeganThis product does not contain animal products of any kind.
MeltThis product may melt if shipped to a warm location.
Glide the massage bar directly over dry skin; it will melt upon contact. Massage or rub the oils into the skin. As massage bars are made with natural butters and oils, take care to ensure they absorb completely before putting on your best pj's. Massage bars melt at body temperature, keep yours somewhere cool, dry, and out of direct sunlight.How to use
A real strain: Inspiring runners and non-runners around the world to pull a muscle.
Feeling kneady? Use the side buttered with aduki beans for an extra stimulating experience.
Some like it hot: Cinnamon leaf oil has a warm, rich and spicy aroma.

Shape your thoughts & create your life!
Everything starts with our thoughts . . .
If we think best life thoughts (everything is possible, keep going, abundance, give what you want to get, gratitude and appreciation, positive thoughts, love . . .), and make sure our words and actions reflect these thoughts, we form best life habits, which form the character that enables us to create our best lives!
We need to choose our thoughts, shape our thoughts, to make sure that they are in line with creating our best lives. We also need to teach our children how to shape their thoughts too. It's never too early to start creating your best life!
"Watch your thoughts; they become words.
"Watch your words; they become actions.
Watch your actions; they become habits.
Watch your habits; they become character.
Watch your character; it becomes your destiny."
Similar quotes attributed to Lao-Tze, Frank Outlaw, and others
"You are what you think."
Thoughts | Buddha
"Whatever words we utter should be chosen with care for people will hear them and be influenced by them for good or ill.
Words | Buddha
"We become just by performing just action, temperate by performing temperate actions, brave by performing brave action."
Actions | Aristotle
"We are what we repeatedly do; excellence, then, is not an act but a habit."
Habits | Aristotle
"A man is literally what he thinks (italics), his character being the complete sum of all his thoughts."
Character | James Allen
"Destiny is no matter of chance. It is a matter of choice: It is not a thing to be waited for, it is a thing to be achieved."
Destiny | William Jennings Bryan
"Life isn't about finding yourself. Life is about creating yourself."
Create Your Best Life | George Bernard Shaw
So, how do you shape your thoughts, choose positive thoughts, thoughts that will help you create your best life (instead of the other way around!)? You do it by making it a habit! There will be much more on how to do this later on, but for now, it all starts with awareness, with our thoughts, so start paying attention. Ask yourself, is this a thought (or words or actions) that is going to help me create my best life or prevent me from creating my best life.
Pay attention!
Focus on your thoughts, shape your thoughts, and start creating your best life!

Almost useless This app does not do much of anything. Info I do see often has no relationship to what appears on my laptop.
I've had q2013 for couple and no mention of cloud thing there is a password to download from bank paid for disc. Now this q is free? my too too I've got issues with quicken to install is free but to do anything $$
Lack of programming effort This app has the potential of being really useful, but it falls short in many ways. Entering a transaction is too difficult and not intuitive (and this is from Intuit!). It's ridiculous that I have to edit transactions when they're downloaded to the desktop program.
No Support for "QUICKEN 2013 HAS STOPPED" errors DON'T EXPECT any support from Intuit or Quicken 2014 team when this begins happening to you In the equivalent app for Quicken 2014. Tech support non-existent for Quicken 2013 Mobile app, don't expect anything different for Quicken 2014. Many users experience Error message on any touch of Settings or clicking on alerts such as "1 accounts need your attention!" Click and you get "Unfortunately, Quicken 2013 has stopped." No response or update has ever been released for this poor programming effort, even to fix simple bugs.
06/16/2015 I See that Intuit has basically stopped supporting this mobile 2013 application. Once again, nothing but greed from this company and another ploy to upgrade, did I said upgrade?, I mean to buy the newest version. They claim to give you an upgrade price but really Intuit? I'm extremely disappointed in Intuit. One certainly would come to trust that a company the size of Intuit would stay ahead of announced Android version upgrades? This application no longer runs on Android version 4.4. In addition, I am also disappointed in how Intuit handled the introduction of their mobile application with the 2013 Quicken release. Many, many of us suffer through months of tweaking on their part before the product was stable. Now they are quick to release Quicken 2014 and never offering any significant discount to those of us that did their production testing of Quicken 2013. Intuit, you certainly should do a little soul-searching when it comes to your customer base before it disappears.
Lame What is wrong with them. Back on Windows Mobile when Landware made the app it was great. This is garbage. Expect Intuit to follow Microsoft into the elephant graveyard

Pragmatic application of a clinical prediction rule in primary care to identify patients with low back pain with a good prognosis following a brief spinal manipulation intervention
1 Division of Physical Therapy, University of Utah, 520 Wakara Way, Salt Lake City, UT 84108, USA
2 Rehab Agency, Intermountain Health Care, 2200 South 1685 West, Salt Lake City, UT, 84119, USA

4 Department of Physical Therapy, Regis University, Denver, CO, 80221, USA
BMC Family Practice 2005, 6:29 doi:10.1186/1471-2296-6-29Published: 14 July 2005
Patients with low back pain are frequently encountered in primary care. Although a specific diagnosis cannot be made for most patients, it is likely that sub-groups exist within the larger entity of nonspecific low back pain. One sub-group that has been identified is patients who respond rapidly to spinal manipulation. The purpose of this study was to examine the association between two factors (duration and distribution of symptoms) and prognosis following a spinal manipulation intervention.
Data were taken from two previously published studies. Patients with low back pain underwent a standardized examination, including assessment of duration of the current symptoms in days, and the distal-most distribution of symptoms. Based on prior research, patients with symptoms of <16 days duration and no symptoms distal to the knee were considered to have a good prognosis following manipulation. All patients underwent up to two sessions of spinal manipulation treatment and a range of motion exercise. Oswestry disability scores were recorded before and after treatment. If ≥ 50% improvement on the Oswestry was achieved, the intervention was considered a success. Sensitivity, specificity, and positive likelihood ratio were calculated for the association of the two criteria with the outcome of the treatment.
141 patients (49% female, mean age = 35.5 (± 11.1) years) participated. Mean pre- and post-treatment Oswestry scores were 41.9 (± 10.9) and 24.1 (± 14.2) respectively. Sixty-three subjects (45%) had successful treatment outcomes. The sensitivity of the two criteria was 0.56 (95% CI: 0.43, 0.67), specificity was 0.92 (95% CI: 0.84, 0.96), and the positive likelihood ratio was 7.2 (95% CI: 3.2, 16.1).
The results of this study demonstrate that two factors; symptom duration of less than 16 days, and no symptoms extending distal to the knee, were associated with a good outcome with spinal manipulation.

What a disappointment!
I was looking forward to Cod after the "fish with no name" I have bought recently. I couldn't tell the difference, the flesh was grey and tasted just about the same as the nameless fish. Will never buy this again.

Shaped off-cuts of cod.
I have reluctantly stopped buying this product after noticing a declining quality of the cod fish fillet. My suspicions are confirmed as finally the packaging has been updated and now confirms the product's composition as multiple cuts of cod fish fillet shaped into portions.

Bought on special offer and tastes very good. Flesh is tender and crumbs are crispy. In deciding if this is for you, bear in mind I love batters and pastry. This doesn't a thick coating, but it is notiecable.

Singing Wilderness: A Vibrant Book of Discovery That Re-Creates the Sights and Sounds of The....
Synopses & Reviews
Publisher Comments:
to do with the calling of loons, with northern lights, and the great silences of land lying northwest of Lake Superior. It is concerned with the simple joys, the timelessness and perspective found in a way of life which is close to the past. I have heard the singing in many places, but I seem to hear it best in the wilderness lake country of the Quetico-Superior, where travel is still by pack and canoe over the ancient trails of the Indians and voyageurs." Thus the author sets the theme and tone of this enthralling book of discovery about one of the few great primitive areas in our country which have withstood the pressures of civilization.
Acute natural perceptivity and a profound knowledge of the relationships to be found in nature combine here in vivid evocations of the sights, the sounds, the vast stillnesses, and the events of the wilderness as the seasons succeed each other. But Mr. Olson is not content merely to "describe; he probes for meanings that will lead the reader to a different and more revealing way of looking at the out-of-doors and to a deeper sense of its eternal values. In each of the thirty-four chapters of The Singing Wilderness he has sought to capture an essential quality of our magnificent lake and forest heritage. He shows us what can be read from the rocks of the great Canadian Shield; he offers a delightful essay on the virtues of pine knots as fuel; he writes of the ways of a canoe, of flashing trout in the pools of the Isabella, of tamarack bogs, caribou moss, the flight of wild geese, timber wolves, and the birds of the ski trails. And much more, with something to satisfy every taste for wilderness experience.
Superbly illustrated with 38 black-and-white drawings by Francis Lee Jaques, The Singing Wilderness is a book that no lover of nature will want to be without. To anyone who contemplates a vacation in the lake country of northern Minnesota and adjoining Canada, it is the perfect vade mecum.
About the Author
Sigurd F. Olson was for more than thirty years a wilderness guide in the Quetico-Superior country, and no one knew with the same intimacy the mysteries of the lakes and forests of that magnificent primitive area. To the many out-of-doorsmen who canoed and portaged with him through this wilderness, he was known honorifically as the Bourgeois — as the voyageurs of old called their trusted leaders through this same region.
Mr. Olson was born in Chicago in 1899, and educated at the University of Wisconsin and the University of Illinois. For several years he taught biology at Ely Junior College and later served as Dean. He was President of the National Parks Association, a member of its Board of Trustees, and was for years active in organizations devoted to conservation problems.
Mr. Olson was a frequent contributor to magazines concerned with the outdoors, and is the author of several books including Listening Point, The Lonely Land, Runes of the North, Reflection from the North Country, and Of Time and Place. Until his death in 1982, he made his home with his wife, Elizabeth, in Ely, Minnesota, gateway to his beloved Quetico-Superior country.

DUBLIN, April 25, 2014 /PRNewswire/ --
Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/sfczpt/contactless) has announced the addition of the "Contactless Payments Market by Solutions & Services - Global Advancements, Market Forecasts and Analysis (2013-2018)" report to their offering.
(Logo: http://photos.prnewswire.com/prnh/20130307/600769 )
In recent times, millions of consumers are equipped with contactless enabled debit and credit cards and other contactless devices. This adoption is expected to grow rapidly in the next few years with the emergence of mobile phones based on NFC (near-field communication) technology.
From a business standpoint, despite of continuous growth in the volumes of the transactions, financial institutions are facing some marginal pressures on their payment business because of the increasing competition. Whereas, consumers can simply tap their contactless cards and NFC enabled phones on a contactless reader, authorize their purchase without any signatures and pins. Hence, contactless payments are making transactions faster, and check-out lines are becoming shorter generating higher sales volumes.
NFC is considered to be at the heart of mobile electronic payments. The main objective of financial institutions is enhancing the card usage and offer innovative services to cardholders. The main goal in the market is to catch hold of cash market. Contactless technology in the payment industry helps issuers to differentiate their portfolio on the basis of increasing revenues and high branding effect.
The leading vendors in the market are moving to the new and innovative generation of products, presenting optimized chips and operating systems for high level of security, increasing RF performances and transaction times.

As a CIO, are your direct reports IT managers or are they IT leaders? The hard truth is that many IT managers have risen through the ranks based on their technical skills, not their leadership ability. Many are unable to effectively engage and inspire, creating forward momentum in the direction of desired change. Renowned for its approach to leadership and emphasis on their people, organizations increasingly look to our military for insight into these challenges.

Album review: Manic Street Preachers, Rewind the Film (Columbia)
An album about midlife resignation may not sound like the best spark to relight creative fires, but the Manics' return is an unlikely victory even by their standards. After 2004's potential career-killer Lifeblood, their last three albums proved they could still draw on a patented friction between brazen populism and brittle introspection. But their 11th is fresher still, its mostly acoustic intimacies offering searing, sublime dispatches from a stand-off – "in between acceptance and rage" – with middle age.

From Our Editors
Because they believe movement is a precise science, the teaching team at Pilates + Yoga only recruits experts. Each certified instructor must have a background of 10 years or more in their movement-based art, whether they practice Pilates, yoga, dance, or interpretive sitting. They wield their knowledge during the studio's classes, adapting mat-based and apparatus moves to suit beginners and Pilates pros alike. Their wealth of experience also allows them to structure specialized lessons for pre- and post-natal women. From moves aboard the reformer machine to Vinyasa sequences to boot-camp circuits, they compose workouts that hone both strength and mental focus. The Pilates + Yoga studio reflects the same level of commitment toward the environment that the teachers display for their practice. Students stretch on bamboo flooring, their silhouettes dimly illuminated by low-lighting sconces, and solar blankets deter the sun. Reusable cups and cloth towels cut down on waste, and the Return Your Mat policy ensures that no mat purchased at the studio is thrown out or forced to work under wrestling Barbie dolls.

High profile cases are mounting in the UAE as bribery, abuse of power, and financial impropriety tear through companies. These crimes harm both shareholders and investor confidence.
June 1, 2010 10:36 by Katherine Azmeh
When the frenetic tempo of business outpaces the development of legislative oversight, public policy makers are often left to play catch up. Those who seek to exploit the system are often the ones that expose its deepest vulnerabilities. As a global hub of business activity, the UAE is a case in point.
"There is no room for corruption and the corrupt… In all corruption cases, people are not only prosecuted and punished, administrative and legal holes that they exploited to commit their crimes are plugged," Sheikh Mohammed Bin Rashid Al Maktoum said last year. "No one in the Emirates is above the law and accountability."
Prosecutors are acting on that directive, and heads in high places are certainly not immune to blind justice. Local media reported this week the jailing of the former chief exec of the country's largest mortgage lender, along with others charged in illegal land transfer deals. The defendants are believed to have netted more than AED 40 million by selling properties to Bonyan Holdings at an inflated price. A boss at Bonyan was complicit in the dealings, which relied on a triangle of influential players. Defendants included men in high places at property developer, Bonyan, Dubai Islamic Bank, DIB, and the country's largest mortgage lender, Tamweel.
"The convictions are the fourth by the Dubai Criminal Courts as a result of allegations of impropriety at some of Dubai's biggest companies. To date, 13 cases have gone before the courts. A total of AED 3.7 billion is believed to have been embezzled." the National reported this week.
The former DIB chief exec in that case, Saad Abdulrazak, was sentenced earlier this year to a three year prison term on charges that he accepted a multimillion dollar bribe and illegal commissions in connection with his role in facilitating a property sale, the National reported. Abdulrazak was formerly a board member with the developer Deyaar.

NJ Spent $178M on Business Tax Incentive: Report
New Jersey has an incentive program to lure businesses to the state that gives companies back the state income taxes their employees pay. A report, "Paying Taxes to the Boss," released by Good Jobs First, a tax policy group in Washington, D.C., found New Jersey spent $178 million on the program, more than any of the other 16 states with similar tax kickbacks.
Companies that move to New Jersey — even if it's just a shifting of jobs across the Hudson River — are able to get back 80 percent of the state income tax their workers pay for 10 years.
Bill Holland, coordinator of Better Choices for New Jersey, calls the business incentive program "interstate piracy" because it doesn't necessarily create new jobs, it just moves them between states.
The program began in 1996 and has had bi-partisan support, Holland said, but Governor Chris Christie has spent more than his predecessors — a total of $1.5 billion since taking office — on tax incentive programs.
Holland said the state was spending money on tax programs "while claiming the state is broke and can't afford services that actually really create jobs, so investments in education, public transit, and public safety to keep streets safe."
The Christie administration defended its incentive program in a written statement.
"Our Business Employment Incentive Program (BEIP) is creating new jobs in New Jersey, and without it, those jobs would not be here," said Maureen Hassett, senior vice president for governance and communications of the New Jersey Economic Development Authority.
"Through pro-growth policies, New Jersey has once again become a home for business. Since Governor Christie took office, New Jersey has added 74,500 private-sector jobs, and the state's unemployment rate has declined from 9.8 percent to 9.0 percent," Hassett said. "These policies have positioned New Jersey for business expansion, economic growth and job creation as our economy recovers."
Connecticut also gives employee withholding taxes back to companies that move to the state. New York, which has other forms of business incentives, does not.

Some comments on Stack Overflow question Why doesn't the C# compiler stop properties from referring to themselves? regarding warnings got me thinking about old issues that always goofed me up when I was writing more VB.NET code.
One of them was the fact that the compiler didn't warn if you declared a Function but never did an explicit Return statement or assign to the Function name. Running Visual Studio 2008, I just made a small experimental project, and it seems as though the behavior has never been fixed. I created a Visual Basic Console application, with the following code:
Module MainModule
Sub Main()
Dim test As Boolean = TestWarning()
End Sub
Function TestWarning() As Boolean
Console.WriteLine("There is no Return Statement")
End Function
End Module
I also went into the Project Settings and turned
On Option Strict and
Option Explicit. I also set the Warning Configurations so that "Function/Operator with no return value" was set to Error.
I compiled the project and got no warning, and no error on the TestWarning() Function. This seems like a great place to put a warning, because it will default to False, and you may have simply forgotten to do a return. C# will error without a return statement. I thought that VB.NET did the same thing with the "Function/Operator with no return value" configuration. Is this a bug, or is there something I'm missing?
Further Experimentation
Function TestWarning() As Boolean
If DateTime.Now.DayOfWeek = DayOfWeek.Monday Then
Return False
Console.WriteLine("There is no Return Statement")
End If
End Function
If I have an explicit
Return in an
If, and nothing in the
Else, there is also no warning or error. It will simply take the default, even though you likely intended (via programming style) to have an explicit return. In this case, I explicitly returned
False (which is the default for Boolean), so it's likely a hidden bug that I should have returned
True in the

It's definitely a conversation I'd rather have over coffee than at Pride. Plus a relationship/friendship earns you the right to speak into someone's life, so I hope that would happen.
It's difficult playing the 'what-if' game. "what if I said this, what if he said that..." I hope in the moment that I would answer with grace and truth; that I would represent God well; that I would embody love.
To those who struggle with not watering down what you believe: I do appreciate that. I don't know where I stand. However, do you really think (most) gay people don't know where (most) Christians stand theologically? It's the other half of the equation that's missing. I think we've got the "hate the sin" part down pat.
